-This was the first UFC PPV in the UK since UFC 138 in 2011 (although they’d done a handful of free TV shows over here) and as it had a big-time main event, in a first for the UFC the show was starting at the usual time for PPVs, basically 3am in the UK! Pretty crazy to have the crowd have...

-With Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier going off at UFC 182, rather than give the next title shot to Alexander Gustafsson – who was supposed to face Jones before he got injured and Cormier stepped in – Zuffa decided to book a HUGE stadium show in Sweden for 2015’s first Fox show and made the...
